Featuring the internationally acclaimed soundtrack composed by Hiroyuki SAWANO (Seasons 1, 2, 3 and The Final Season) and KOHTA YAMAMOTO (The Final Season), the concert will showcase the iconic tracks that have come to define the series, including “at’aek ON taitn,” “counter・attack-mankind,” “Apple Seed,” and “Footsteps of Doom.” As in Japan, and true to the original soundtrack, the music will be performed by powerful world-class rock musicians joined by a symphonic orchestra. Hiroyuki SAWANO and KOHTA YAMAMOTO have prepared fan-favorite pieces, which will be accompanied by synchronized scenes from the anime series, bringing its emotional weight and intensity to the concert hall. The soundtrack of “Attack on Titan” has always been one of the series’ greatest strengths, and hearing it performed live is an experience unlike any other.

Established in October of 2000, Japanese Anime People of Chicago (JAPC) was a non-profit, independent, privately owned and operated Anime and Manga club for connecting fans in the Chicagoland area. As fans of anime, manga, Asian Dramas, Asian Music, video games, and much more we met in a friendly casual atmosphere.
Members of this club met in a casual, informal settings: members’ apartments/homes, restaurants, movies, festivals, conventions, and wherever the fandom took us.
As of October 2015, the club transitioned to serve as a event calendar for local anime, manga, and Japanese Cultural events.
